Hospital Vist

This week my transition from high school was not the best week. It was not that it was bad; it just wasn't the best week of my college career.

I ended up the hospital on Friday night with a fever. I do not have a spleen so mu immune system isn't the best. So when I get a fever I have to go to the hospital to see what the problem is. At the hospital they just gave me Tylenol and sent me back to my dorm. 

Well the next day, Saturday my fever returned but stronger. My parents had driven up from Houston at this point. My mom called my doctor back in Houston to see what should happen next. He told us to go a different hospital in San Antonio. Which we did, they admitted me.

I stayed in that hospital from Saturday night to Tuesday afternoon. They ran all kind of tests and nothing came back positive on the tests. During this time my blood count had dropped so low that they were about to infuse me with blood. Just as they were about to, my count slowly started to increase. I have never had a blood transfusion before. 

After being discharged from the hospital, I came back to Texas Lutheran. I had so much homework that I needed to caught up on. It was at first very overwhelming, but all my professors have been very understanding about it. I really like that; it has helped me from going insane from all the work that piled up.

I am now feeling a lot better about the amount of homework that I still have left to do. I know that if I keep my mind to the task at hand and take breaks every now and then that I will stay clear headed. I hope that this next week coming up isn’t going to be crazy. I would really like a week of easy going. I know that college is more work; I just hope to get the hang of it soon. Even if it doesn’t I know that I can do it. I can do anything that I put my mind to.
